Marilyn Mosby testifies, wanting to tell ‘my truth’

Jurors in Marilyn Mosby's federal mortgage fraud case heard from the defendant herself on Wednesday. After the court gave the defendant extra time to mull it over, Mosby returned Wednesday morning to U.S. District Court in Greenbelt and informed the court she would take the stand to tell her side. Mosby was indicted in January 2022 on federal perjury and mortgage fraud charges, which are going to trial separately. The government alleges Mosby lied on loan applications during the purchase of two Florida vacation homes, a home in Kissimmee in September 2020 and a Gulf Coast condo in February 2021.
